    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    London, July 31, 2025

    “Shell generated robust cash flows reflecting strong operational performance in a less favourable macro environment​. We continued to deliver on our strategy by enhancing our deep-water portfolio in Nigeria and Brazil, and achieved a key milestone by shipping the first cargo from LNG Canada.

    Our continued focus on performance, discipline and simplification helped deliver $3.9 billion of structural cost reductions since 2022, with the majority delivered through non-portfolio actions. This focus enables us to commence another $3.5 billion of buybacks for the next three months, the 15th consecutive quarter of at least $3 billion in buybacks.”

    Shell plc Chief Executive Officer, Wael Sawan

    ROBUST CASH GENERATION; STRONG OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

    • Adjusted Earnings1 of $4.3 billion despite lower trading contribution in a weaker margin environment.
    • Robust CFFO of $11.9 billion, supported by strong operational performance, enables commencement of another $3.5 billion share buyback programme for the next three months.
    • Strong balance sheet, with gearing of 19%. 2025 cash capex outlook unchanged at $20 – 22 billion. Total shareholder distributions paid over the last 4 quarters were 46% of CFFO.
    • Achieved $0.8 billion of structural cost reductions in the first half of 2025, of which $0.5 billion is through non-portfolio actions; cumulative reductions since 2022 are $3.9 billion, against CMD25 target of $5 – 7 billion by end of 2028.
    • First cargo shipped from LNG Canada, strengthening our leading LNG position and supporting our ambition to achieve LNG sales cumulative annual growth rate of 4 – 5% to 2030.
    • Further enhanced peer-leading deep-water position with start-up of Mero-4 (Brazil) and announced increase of interests in Gato do Mato (Brazil) and Bonga (Nigeria); continued to high-grade Downstream and R&ES portfolio.

    ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE (NON-GAAP) MEASURES

    This announcement includes certain measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such as IFRS, including Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted EBITDA, CFFO excluding working capital movements, free cash flow, Divestment proceeds and Net debt. This information, along with comparable GAAP measures, is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring Shell plc’s operating performance and ability to retire debt and invest in new business opportunities. Shell plc’s management uses these financial measures, along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, in evaluating the business performance.

    This announcement may contain certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted Earnings and divestments. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because certain information needed to reconcile the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is dependent on future events some of which are outside the control of the company, such as oil and gas prices, interest rates and exchange rates. Moreover, estimating such GAAP measures with the required precision necessary to provide a meaningful reconciliation is extremely difficult and could not be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Non-GAAP measures in respect of future periods which cannot be reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are estimated in a manner which is consistent with the accounting policies applied in Shell plc’s consolidated financial statements.

    CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

    The companies in which Shell plc directly and indirectly owns investments are separate legal entities. In this announcement, “Shell”, “Shell Group” and “Group” are sometimes used for convenience to reference Shell plc and its subsidiaries in general. Likewise, the words “we”, “us” and “our” are also used to refer to Shell plc and its subsidiaries in general or to those who work for them. These terms are also used where no useful purpose is served by identifying the particular entity or entities. “Subsidiaries”, “Shell subsidiaries” and “Shell companies” as used in this announcement refer to entities over which Shell plc either directly or indirectly has control. The terms “joint venture”, “joint operations”, “joint arrangements”, and “associates” may also be used to refer to a commercial arrangement in which Shell has a direct or indirect ownership interest with one or more parties. The term “Shell interest” is used for convenience to indicate the direct and/or indirect ownership interest held by Shell in an entity or unincorporated joint arrangement, after exclusion of all third-party interest.

    This announcement contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) concerning the financial condition, results of operations and businesses of Shell. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements of future expectations that are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements concerning the potential exposure of Shell to market risks and statements expressing management’s expectations, beliefs, estimates, forecasts, projections and assumptions. These forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “aim”; “ambition”; “anticipate”; “aspire”; “aspiration”; ‘‘believe’’; “commit”; “commitment”; ‘‘could’’; “desire”; ‘‘estimate’’; ‘‘expect’’; ‘‘goals’’; ‘‘intend’’; ‘‘may’’; “milestones”; ‘‘objectives’’; ‘‘outlook’’; ‘‘plan’’; ‘‘probably’’; ‘‘project’’; ‘‘risks’’; “schedule”; ‘‘seek’’; ‘‘should’’; ‘‘target’’; “vision”; ‘‘will’’; “would” and similar terms and phrases. There are a number of factors that could affect the future operations of Shell and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements included in this announcement, including (without limitation): (a) price fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas; (b) changes in demand for Shell’s products; (c) currency fluctuations; (d) drilling and production results; (e) reserves estimates; (f) loss of market share and industry competition; (g) environmental and physical risks, including climate change; (h) risks associated with the identification of suitable potential acquisition properties and targets, and successful negotiation and completion of such transactions; (i) the risk of doing business in developing countries and countries subject to international sanctions; (j) legislative, judicial, fiscal and regulatory developments including tariffs and regulatory measures addressing climate change; (k) economic and financial market conditions in various countries and regions; (l) political risks, including the risks of expropriation and renegotiation of the terms of contracts with governmental entities, delays or advancements in the approval of projects and delays in the reimbursement for shared costs; (m) risks associated with the impact of pandemics, regional conflicts, such as the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflict in the Middle East, and a significant cyber security, data privacy or IT incident; (n) the pace of the energy transition; and (o) changes in trading conditions. No assurance is provided that future dividend payments will match or exceed previous dividend payments. All forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Additional risk factors that may affect future results are contained in Shell plc’s Form 20-F and amendment thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 (available at www.shell.com/investors/news-and-filings/sec-filings.html and www.sec.gov). These risk factors also expressly qualify all forward-looking statements contained in this announcement and should be considered by the reader. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this announcement, July 31, 2025. Neither Shell plc nor any of its subsidiaries undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or other information. In light of these risks, results could differ materially from those stated, implied or inferred from the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement.

    All amounts shown throughout this announcement are unaudited. The numbers presented throughout this announcement may not sum precisely to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures, due to rounding.

    Shell’s Net Carbon Intensity

    Also, in this  announcement, we may refer to Shell’s “net carbon intensity” (NCI), which includes Shell’s carbon emissions from the production of our energy products, our suppliers’ carbon emissions in supplying energy for that production and our customers’ carbon emissions associated with their use of the energy products we sell. Shell’s NCI also includes the emissions associated with the production and use of energy products produced by others which Shell purchases for resale. Shell only controls its own emissions. The use of the terms Shell’s “net carbon intensity” or NCI is for convenience only and not intended to suggest these emissions are those of Shell plc or its subsidiaries.

    Shell’s Net-Zero Emissions Target

    Shell’s operating plan and outlook are forecasted for a three-year period and ten-year period, respectively, and are updated every year. They reflect the current economic environment and what we can reasonably expect to see over the next three and ten years. Accordingly, the outlook reflects our Scope 1, Scope 2 and NCI targets over the next ten years. However, Shell’s operating plan and outlook cannot reflect our 2050 net-zero emissions target, as this target is outside our planning period. Such future operating plans and outlooks could include changes to our portfolio, efficiency improvements and the use of carbon capture and storage and carbon credits. In the future, as society moves towards net-zero emissions, we expect Shell’s operating plans and outlooks to reflect this movement. However, if society is not net zero in 2050, as of today, there would be significant risk that Shell may not meet this target.

    The content of websites referred to in this announcement does not form part of this announcement.

    We may have used certain terms, such as resources, in this announcement that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) strictly prohibits us from including in our filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 20-F and any amendment thereto, File No 1-32575, available on the SEC website www.sec.gov.

    The financial information presented in this announcement does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434(3) of the Companies Act 2006 (the “Act”). Statutory accounts for the year ended December 31, 2024 were published in Shell’s Annual Report and Accounts, a copy of which was delivered to the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales. The auditor’s report on those accounts was unqualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditor drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying the report and did not contain a statement under sections 498(2) or 498(3) of the Act.

The first half year of 2025 benefited from the full effect of the preferential profit sharing (PAB) offers on euro payments, launched at the end of the first half of 2024; these boosted gross inflows2 on the General Account to €13.9 billion (+29.5%). Unit-Linked gross inflows2 totalled €6.9 billion, up +15.9% compared to the first half of 2024. As a result, the share of Unit-Linked within gross inflows2 stood at 33.2% (-2.5 points year on-year).

    Net inflows2 set a half year record of +€8.2 billion, up +€5.7 billion compared to the first half of 2024. By product, net inflows2 amounted to +€4.4 billion on the General Account and +€3.8 billion on Unit-linked.

    Life insurance outstandings4 reached €359.4 billion at the end of June 2025 thanks to very strong net inflows and a positive market effect. They included €251.0 billion on the General Account (+3.2% over six months) and €108.4 billion on Unit-Linked (+4.1% over six months). Unit-Linked reserves represented 30.2% of total life insurance outstandings at the end of June 2025, up +0.2 point compared to December 31, 2024.

    In property and casualty, the business continued to grow with gross written premiums1 up +8.5% compared to the end of June 2024, reaching €4.0 billion. The portfolio exceeded 16.9 million contracts and grew by +2.8%, representing a net contribution of nearly 470,000 contracts over one year; in addition to the price increases induced by climate change and the inflation of repair costs, the average premium benefited from changes in the product mix.

    Equipment rates within the Crédit Agricole Group’s banks kept growing year-on-year, at the Regional Banks (44.2%5, up +0,7 point), LCL (28.4%5, up +0.6 point) and CA Italia (20.6%6, up +0.9 point).

    In personal protection (death and disability / creditor / group insurance7), gross written premiums1 increased by +1.8% compared to the end of June 2024, to €2.7 billion. Group insurance (+12.0%) and individual death and disability (+4.8%) recorded good performances. Creditor insurance was down slightly (-1.4%), notably due to international consumer credit.

    RESILIENT RESULTS REFLECTING BUSINESS GROWTH

    Crédit Agricole Assurances’ net income Group share reached €1,016 million for the first half of 2025, down -1.7% over one year. Adjusted for the exceptional tax contribution on the profits of large companies, Crédit Agricole Assurances’ net income Group share rose by +5.8%, reflecting the change in revenues.

    The combined ratio8 was stable year-on-year at 94.7% (+0.1 point compared to June 2024).
    With a neutral impact of discount, the net undiscounted combined ratio increased by +0.1 point over one year to stand at 97.4%.

    The Contractual Service Margin9 amounted to €26.8 billion at the end of the first half of 2025, up +6.3% since December 31, 2024. It included a strong contribution from new business of €1.7 billion, driven by revenues growth higher than the release through P&L (-€1.1 billion). Stock revaluation effect stood at +€1.0 billion due to positive market effect.

    SOLVENCY 

    At the end of June 2025, Crédit Agricole Assurances once again demonstrated its strength, with a Solvency II prudential ratio estimated at 202%.

  • MIL-OSI: ACTFORE Secures Patent for Intelligent Data Extraction from Unstructured Documents, Revolutionising Breach Response

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    RESTON, Va., July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ACTFORE, a leading provider of AI-powered breach response and data mining solutions, announced today the company has been granted a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for its proprietary technology enabling targeted data extraction from unstructured document sets, a first-of-its kind patent in the data mining industry.

    Unlike many industries, the data mining and breach response fields have historically lacked patentable innovations due to their reliance on human-driven workflows and off-the-shelf automation. ACTFORE’s achievement represents a major advancement in automated breach response workflows: the first recognized patent for precision data extraction designed specifically to efficiently and accurately extract sensitive data from massive, unstructured information environments following a breach.

    “This patent isn’t just a milestone for ACTFORE, but for the entire industry,” said CEO Christian Geyer. “In a space where most work is still done manually or through tedious and inaccurate workflows, we’ve introduced a scalable, intelligent solution that truly learns and adapts and can work alongside our team of onshore experts to create an approach that merges manual precision with deep learning to create a hybrid workflow that is both fast and legally defensible.”

    The patent, “Techniques for Targeted Data Extraction from Unstructured Sets of Documents”, refers to ACTFORE’S dynamic interface that allows operators to define “visual boxes” around regions of interest on a document page, then automatically propagate those selections across structurally similar files using deep learning and FAISS-based clustering. Paired with advanced optical character recognition (OCR), the system can extract high-fidelity text, even from scanned or non-machine-readable documents. This allows for targeted, scalable parsing with minimal redundancy and dramatically reduced review time.

    “We’ve essentially built a facial recognition system, but for document layouts,” said Yumna Zaidi, Innovations Team Lead at ACTFORE and Lead Inventor on the patent. “Our tech creates unique embedding vectors for each document structure, letting us match and process them with unprecedented speed and accuracy.”

    This combination of automation and expert-driven human review ensures that sensitive information such as names, account numbers, or health data can be extracted quickly, accurately, and consistently, even across large and messy data sets.

    “Data breaches happen in chaotic, inconsistent environments and ACTFORE is built to handle the complexity,” added Dhiraj Sharma, Senior Data Scientist and Co-Inventor. “By integrating the latest automation and data mining tools with human judgment, we’re able to respond more efficiently and accurately than traditional methods. That’s where this patent truly delivers value.”

    The platform supports a wide range of document types—including unstructured and semi-structured PDFs, images, and text files—and automatically preserves selected coordinates for batch processing at scale. This not only accelerates review but also ensures consistent, defensible results across complex, multi-jurisdictional engagements.

    “We didn’t just apply automation for the sake of speed. We designed a product that understands the complexity of each task and empowers humans to make better decisions, faster,” said Sanskriti Shivhare, Team Lead and Co-Inventor.

    This newly issued patent strengthens ACTFORE’s growing intellectual property portfolio and reflects its continued investment in transforming breach response through applied AI. As data breach volumes rise and regulatory timelines tighten, ACTFORE’s patented technology sets a new industry benchmark for intelligent, scalable remediation.

    About ACTFORE
    ACTFORE delivers advanced AI/ML-powered data mining solutions for legal counsel, insurance carriers, and corporations, specialising in swiftly detecting and uncovering compromised sensitive information in cyber breaches. Capable of processing over 1 million files per hour, ACTFORE’s on-premises, on-shore, technology-first approach offers the fastest and most accurate assessments, enabling clients to quickly understand the scope of exfiltration, mitigate risk, and make informed decisions about ransom payments. Clients maintain full control of their data through ACTFORE’s secure lab or local deployment options. Trusted by over 25 insurance carriers and 35 law firms, including premier Am Law 100 firms, ACTFORE sets the new standard in incident response and data forensics.

  • MIL-OSI: involve.me Launches First-Ever Conversational AI Agent for Funnel Creation

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Vienna, Austria – 31th July 2025 – involve.me, a leading funnel builder platform, proudly announces the beta release of its AI Agent, the first conversational AI for funnel creation. Designed to transform how businesses build and optimize sales and marketing funnels, the AI Agent allows users to generate, customize, and refine high-converting funnels using simple English prompts. Users can create interactive landing pages & website embeds with quizzes, forms, surveys and calculators simply by chatting with AI. This marks a new era of user-friendly, intelligent funnel design.

    “Over the past year, ‘vibe-coding’ platforms like Lovable and Bolt have gained traction by letting users describe apps in natural language and generate prototypes using AI. While visually impressive, these apps often mask underlying issues (bugs, unhandled edge cases, and security vulnerabilities) that make them unfit for live, business-critical use. What works in a demo rarely works in the real world,” said Vlad Gozman, CEO at involve.me.”

    The involve.me AI Agent acts as a virtual funnel expert, capable of generating multi-step funnels, landing pages, and website embeds based on natural language input. Users can then chat with the AI to refine elements in real-time and use the traditional drag-and-drop editor alongside it. This dual approach ensures the user stays in complete control of the creative process every step of the way, while using the stress-tested infrastructure of the platform already used by over 4500 customers.

    “We handle our customers’ customer data, so it was crucial to blend the magic of conversational AI funnel generation with the robustness and reliability of business-grade software” Gozman said when talking about deploying the AI Agent at scale in real-world business use-cases.

    Key Highlights of the AI Agent:

    • Conversational funnel creation: The AI Agent allows users to build complete sales and marketing funnels simply by typing plain English prompts in a chat interface. Whether the user needs a lead generation form, a product quiz, or a pricing calculator, the AI iteratively translates ideas into working funnels. Users can ask the AI to make further tweaks in conversations.
    • Dual editing experience with full control: The AI Agent works alongside involve.me’s drag-and-drop editor, allowing for seamless collaboration between AI-powered automation and manual customization. This hybrid approach keeps users in control.

    “Unlike tools that generate code from scratch, involve.me’s AI Agent builds with production-tested components native to our funnel platform, ensuring security, stability, and reliability from the start”, says Gozman.

    • Built by AI using native components: The AI Agent can leverage many features and building blocks of involve.me. It can implement a multi-page funnel structure, add context relevant content elements, write the required copy, map answers to outcomes and more. And involve.me plans to roll out fast iterations, adding more and more tools, with the aim of eventually making it “the most knowledgeable user of the platform”, according to Gozman.  
    • Eliminates the learning curve: New users can get started without watching tutorials or reading through the knowledge base. The AI acts as a personal assistant, turning user requests into funnel features that users can tweak conversationally or by drag & drop.
    • Agency-level output, in-house: It eliminates the need for external help, as it puts the power of expert-level funnel creation in every user’s hands. The AI Agent is like an involve.me super-user on demand, delivering results that typically require hours of training or help from an agency.
    • The AI Agent is available at no extra cost for all involve.me users, across both free and paid plans: This makes AI-powered funnel creation accessible to businesses of any size, without additional overhead.
    • It’s built on a model-agnostic foundation, supporting multiple large language models (LLMs): This flexible setup means involve.me isn’t tied to any single provider and can easily integrate more advanced models as they emerge, keeping users consistently equipped with the latest AI capabilities.

    The current beta release of the AI Agent focuses on funnel creation and editing, but this is only the initial phase of its development. The AI Agent will expand to support full design & logic customization, end-to-end workflow creation, automation, and more. As part of the beta launch, users have the opportunity to shape the future of the AI Agent by providing feedback, suggesting new use cases, and helping prioritize upcoming features in collaboration with the involve.me team.

    About involve.me

    involve.me is an AI-enhanced funnel platform designed to help businesses convert website visitors into qualified leads through interactive, conversion-optimized experiences. Featuring a powerful drag-and-drop editor, over 300 templates, and a suite of personalization features, involve.me enables users to create everything from product finders and quote calculators to lead magnets and appointment forms.

    With the launch of the chat-native AI Agent, involve.me extends its commitment to innovation, combining ease-of-use with deep customization and intelligent automation. The platform integrates with over 60 tools, supports advanced analytics, and is fully GDPR-compliant, making it a trusted solution for companies across sectors and sizes.

The 100-ounce gold bar (valued at 350,000 USDT) corresponded to lottery number 00270, while the 1 BTC prize (valued at approximately 110,000 USDT) was awarded to lottery number 05270.

    Other major winners included 0.5 BTC (valued at approximately 55,000 USDT), lottery number 04270; 0.3 BTC (valued at approximately 33,000 USDT), lottery number 03270; and 0.1 BTC (valued at approximately 11,000 USDT), lottery number 02270. Additionally, detailed information about Expert Prize, Weekly Surprises, and Daily Prize winners can be found on the MEXC official website.

    At the awards ceremony, winner Soufyan shared his initial reaction to the notification. “When I first got the notification, I couldn’t believe it was real. I kept double-checking until I confirmed it was actually me,” he said.

    Soufyan has been using MEXC for about 1.5 years. Initially, he decided to switch to MEXC after hearing many positive reviews about its competitive low fees, frequent events, and generous user rewards. “Since I started using MEXC, I’ve barely used other platforms.” Soufyan explained. When asked for advice to new investors, he suggested avoiding emotional trading and excessive leverage. He also expressed optimism about AI sector tokens this year, emphasizing those with real-world applications rather than speculative projects.

    The success of Golden Era Showdown underscores MEXC’s philosophy of putting users first through generous rewards and cutting-edge transparency measures. The event’s record-breaking participation reflects the strong trust users place in the platform, while the seamless prize distribution demonstrates MEXC’s commitment to empowering users and delivering on its promises.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    In a digital world where algorithms grow more powerful by the day, Sidetrade, a pioneer in AI-powered cash flow management, reaffirms its role as a responsible leader. Today, the company releases its 2024 CSR Report, marking a new milestone in its commitment to sustainable technology, ethical governance, and inclusive growth.

    Structured in accordance with the voluntary CSRD VSME framework, Sidetrade’s 2024 report tells a standout story in the tech industry: a company that, in 2024, achieved remarkable revenue growth (+26%) while reducing its carbon footprint by 3.3%. This contrast reflects Sidetrade’s core ambition: to decouple business growth from environmental impact.

    “Cash is still the oxygen that fuels business growth. But that growth must no longer come at any cost. We have set a new standard, one that aligns performance with purpose,” said Olivier Novasque, CEO and founder at Sidetrade. “Our agentic AI, Aimie, must be useful, efficient, and capable of delivering business value, operational excellence, and positive societal impact.”

    In 2024, Sidetrade launched an ambitious digital sobriety program. With a virtualization rate of 95.6%, data centers powered by renewable energy (both in Europe and North America), and a Power Usage Effectiveness of 1.39 (well below the EU average*), Sidetrade is redefining SaaS industry benchmarks.

    Sidetrade also made a notable impact in non-financial ratings, earning a Platinum Medal from EthiFinance and a Silver Medal from EcoVadis, placing it among the top 15% of rated companies in Europe. This recognition highlights both its tangible carbon reductions and the strength of its CSR governance, led by a dedicated committee reporting to executive leadership.

    “Excellence and ambition are the dual engines of our CSR journey,” said Philippe Gangneux, CFO and CSR Ambassador at Sidetrade. “Excellence ensures discipline in our commitments; ambition pushes us to aim higher, to reach further, and to generate lasting impact.”

    As an active member of the United Nations Global Compact, Sidetrade has aligned its roadmap with 10 of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, including climate action, workplace equity, ethical governance, and digital resilience.

    The 2024 Sidetrade CSR report, with detailed performance indicators, is available here.

  • MIL-OSI: Prospera Energy Inc. Provides Operations Update

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Prospera Energy Inc. (TSX.V: PEI, OTC: GXRFF) (“Prospera”, “PEI” or the “Corporation”)

    Operations Update
    Prospera continues to demonstrate strong operational performance, averaging gross production of 859 boe/d (97% oil) from July 1st to July 23rd. This sustained growth follows the successful completion of numerous projects across the company’s properties including well reactivations, rod repairs, sand control upgrades, engine maintenance and tune-ups, lease upgrades, mineral rights acquisitions, coil-tubing cleanouts, and waterflood optimizations. Nine additional wells have come online in the last 10 days and are currently in stages of load fluid recovery or initial optimization.

    Notably, these figures exclude production from the recently acquired White Tundra Petroleum assets, which remains subject to TSXV acceptance. Comprehensive well-by-well analysis is now being conducted weekly, with production enhancement changes implemented on a daily basis through communication with field operations personnel. Concurrently, Prospera’s service rig continues to systematically work through a robust inventory of over 150 remaining workover and reactivation candidates across its heavy oil properties, further enhancing operational efficiency.

    Prospera’s predominantly heavy oil production base continues to operate in favorable pricing conditions with WCS (Western Canadian Select) differentials in an optimal range, contributing to enhanced revenue and cash flow. The Corporation’s high netbacks support our strategy to reallocate capital efficiently into high-impact and reliable projects, with 50+ projects now completed and plans finalized for its Q3 and Q4 service rig programs including nine Luseland reactivations that have completed engineering and planning stages.

    Cuthbert
    Production at the Cuthbert pool has been rising steadily, averaging 356 boe/d (100% oil) from July 1st to July 23rd. This sustained growth is supported by ongoing waterflood optimization, increased pump speeds, and the completion of critical maintenance across wellsite and battery infrastructure.

    A high-impact remediation project on the 16-28 HZ well has been successfully completed, involving the installation of a downhole bridge plug to isolate a section of the well previously drilled into coal and water-bearing part of the formation. Additionally, a high-impact remediation project on the 08-02 HZ well has been fully funded and is awaiting mobilization after lease conditions dry up. This project includes a casing cut and cementing to block water production from the heel of the well.

    Hearts Hill
    Production at the Hearts Hill pool remains stable, averaging 230 boe/d (91% oil) from July 1st to 23rd. The Corporation is actively advancing waterflood pattern optimization and fluid level drawdown initiatives to enhance reservoir performance. A comprehensive line-by-line review of all pipelines in the area has been completed to confirm injection volumes, validate pipeline integrity, and support the development of a final field reactivation and workover plan. Earlier Sparky zone recompletions continue to deliver consistent oil production, with future Sparky waterflood development held in inventory. Prospera is also actively evaluating uphole recompletion opportunities in the Waseca and Rex zones to further unlock production potential.

    Luseland
    The Corporation continues to advance its growth trajectory at the Luseland pool, averaging production of 193 boe/d (100% oil) from July 1st to 23rd. This performance is supported by ongoing workovers, well reactivations, and field optimizations. In the past 10 days, five reactivated wells have been brought online, with two additional wells recently completed under Single Well Battery setups and awaiting start-up.

    Numerous other wells are currently undergoing optimization, including the installation of recycle pumps, application of sand suspension chemical treatments, increased pump speeds to accelerate fluid drawdown, flushby operations, and well loads to bring sand up the wellbore. These efforts are complemented by various initiatives aimed at reducing operating costs. Prospera’s engineering team is focused on well-by-well monitoring of all new reactivations to maximize production rates and enhance reservoir understanding while minimizing well failures and decline rates.

    Several high-performing Luseland wells are featured in the accompanying Key Wells Report, demonstrating the success of Prospera’s strategic focus on revitalizing legacy wells with significant original oil in place (OOIP). By reactivating these assets, the company is effectively converting wells previously classified as No Reserves Associated (NRA) and burdened solely with Asset Retirement Obligations (ARO) into actively producing wells with meaningful Proved Developed Producing (PDP) reserves—resulting in sustainable revenue generation and positive cash flow.

    Production, Workover Tracker, and Key Wells Report
    Prospera is enhancing its transparency measures with the publishing of its updated production, workover tracker, and key wells report. Production volumes on each field will continue to be reported on a monthly basis, along with corporate revenue information. A detailed workover tracker will share production rates from all workovers and reactivations completed, with information on capital spend and cumulative production since start-up to be added to the August iteration of this report. Additionally, numerous key wells and their production graphs are explained in detail as the company further proves out its highly capital-efficient workover and reactivation business model.

    Price Hedging
    The Corporation is pleased to announce that it has entered into a contract to hedge a portion of its oil production. From September 2025 through February 2026, Prospera has hedged 100 barrels of oil per day at an average price of approximately USD $67.00 per barrel of WTI. This strategic initiative is aimed at providing improved cash flow stability, strengthening corporate governance through proactive risk management, and capitalizing on current favorable market pricing. It represents a disciplined approach to managing commodity price exposure while preserving upside potential across the remainder of PEI’s production.

    Shares for Debt
    Prospera has entered into agreements with two vendors to settle outstanding trade payables through the issuance of common shares. The first vendor has agreed to settle a total of $28,900.45 through the issuance of 125,000 common shares at a deemed price of $0.231 per share. The second vendor has agreed to settle $7,392.55 through the issuance of 40,000 common shares at a deemed price of $0.185 per share. The shares will be subject to a trading restriction of four months and a day from the date of issuance and are subject to TSXV acceptance.

    Loan Amendment
    The Corporation announces a further amendment to its $11,000,000 promissory note, originally dated June 7, 2024, in collaboration with its principal lender. Following previous increases, an additional $2,000,000 has been added, bringing the total principal amount to $18,700,000. The note retains its original terms, including a 12% interest rate and a two-year maturity, with no other changes. The proceeds are earmarked specifically towards production-increasing capital projects. This amendment remains subject to acceptance by the TSXV.

    Promissory Note Update
    The Corporation provides an update regarding the previously disclosed one-year secured promissory note on January 9th, 2025. The promissory note component of the offering will now be unsecured. The placement closed with four subscribers, raising aggregate gross proceeds of $900,000. Each unit, priced at $1,000, consists of: (i) a one-year unsecured promissory note with a principal amount of $1,000, carrying a 12% annual interest rate, and (ii) 5,000 common share purchase warrants of the Corporation, exercisable at $0.05 for a period of one year, for a total of 4,500,000 warrants. Subscribers are entitled to a 5% gross overriding royalty (GORR) for every $1,000,000 of principal investment on revenue from all Prospera properties on incremental production above 1,363 barrels per day, calculated on a monthly average until the principal debt is fully repaid. Interest on the notes will accrue and be paid quarterly, accompanied by a 2% facility fee. This offering has been accepted by the TSX Venture Exchange.

    Insiders have participated in this offering for a principal amount of $800,000, which results in this being a Related Party Transaction pursuant to TSXV Policy 5.9 and MI 61-101. The Corporation is relying upon numerous exemptions under these policies with respect to minority approval and valuation requirements, including those found in section 5.5 (a), (b), and (c) and 5.7 (a) and (b). The following reporting Insiders have participated in this offering:

  • MIL-OSI: Introducing Commerce, the New Parent Brand of BigCommerce, Feedonomics and Makeswift, Powering an AI-Driven Future

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Commerce’s open, intelligent ecosystem connects the tools and systems that drive growth and empower businesses to unlock data potential and deliver seamless, personalized experiences at scale

    Commerce unveils unified AI vision to enable every merchant to thrive in the agentic commerce era

    AUSTIN, Texas, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BigCommerce Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIGC), a leading open SaaS ecommerce platform for B2C and B2B businesses, today announced the launch of its new parent brand, Commerce, and that it has officially changed its corporate name to Commerce.com, Inc. (“Commerce” or the “Company”), unifying BigCommerce, Feedonomics and Makeswift to power the next era of agentic commerce. In connection with the name change and rebranding, effective on or about August 1, 2025, the Company’s common stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “CMRC” and cease trading under “BIGC.” This strategic move introduces a bold vision for the future where AI navigates choices for consumers and businesses adapt with intelligent, composable tools.

    In conjunction with the rebrand, Commerce also unveiled the company’s vision and strategy for powering agentic commerce where AI acts on behalf of consumers to research, recommend and even transact. To support this shift, Commerce is focused on enabling merchants with the data infrastructure and intelligent storefronts needed to thrive in this next chapter of digital commerce.

    “Launching the Commerce brand is about more than a new name and logo,” said Commerce CEO Travis Hess. “It is a clear declaration to our customers, partners, investors and team that we are doubling down on innovation to give brands, retailers, manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers the flexibility, connectivity and care to help them move faster, scale smarter and grow on their terms. Agentic commerce requires a new playbook, and Commerce is here to deliver it with an open ecosystem built for speed, intelligence and flexibility.”

    Unifying Three Market-leading Solutions

    The individual BigCommerce, Feedonomics and Makeswift brands will continue to exist as three powerful solutions with a unified purpose:

    • BigCommerce is the flexible ecommerce platform that grows with merchants. It is trusted by teams that value speed and scalability, empowering innovation without constraint.
    • Feedonomics turns data into a competitive advantage, ensuring every product is AI-ready and optimized across hundreds of global channels.
    • Built for both marketers and developers, Makeswift is the intuitive visual editor that lets whole teams collaborate to create cutting-edge, personalized digital experiences.

    Together, Commerce connects the tools and systems that drive growth, whether it is part of our family of brands or a trusted outside partner. Its open, intelligent ecosystem empowers businesses to unlock data potential and deliver seamless, personalized experiences at scale.

    “Commerce is more than just another ecommerce company,” said Hess. “We are a trusted partner, an innovation engine and a champion that stands behind what we promise, and one of those promises is to provide an AI-driven ecosystem that aligns innovation with outcomes.”

    Delivering AI to Drive Results

    The way consumers discover and purchase products online is undergoing a dramatic transformation. Traditional organic search is rapidly losing ground as the “front door” of the internet. Instead, shoppers are turning to answer engines—AI-powered platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot and Google Cloud with Gemini—to find what they need and even buy it. In this new era, AI agents act on behalf of shoppers, searching, comparing, and even checking out across multiple channels, often without ever visiting a merchant’s website. These AI-driven experiences are seamless, contextual and increasingly the default for how consumers interact with commerce online.

    For large retail brands and technology companies, this means that web traffic is already shifting as the old playbook of SEO and paid ads becomes less effective. The conversation is focused on regaining visibility and relevance in a fundamentally new digital landscape.

    Commerce offers a complete solution for the AI era. Feedonomics optimizes merchant data for every touchpoint and holds strategic partnerships with leading AI platforms. BigCommerce provides the operating system for merchants of record. Makeswift powers AI-optimized storefronts. Every merchant needs an end-to-end strategy with these pillars for success in AI-driven commerce.

    Over the last few weeks, Commerce brands BigCommerce and Feedonomics have expanded partnerships with AI leaders Perplexity and Google Cloud to help businesses capitalize on agentic commerce opportunities to meet consumer expectations and create a competitive advantage.

    “At Commerce, we leverage AI where it delivers real, measurable results: powering personalization, automation and data orchestration across the entire customer journey from discovery to checkout,” said Vipul Shah, chief product officer at Commerce. “By delivering relevant, context-optimized data to digital channels including answer engines, and creating agentic tools to help merchants optimize their operations, Commerce helps businesses adapt in real time and grow intelligently. We’re not just following the AI wave; we’re in the room with the product and engineering teams from the leading AI companies shaping the future of the internet so that we are positioned to help our customers win.”

    Adventure brand Revelyst, the parent company of Bell, Bushnell, CamelBak and Giro; global consumer brand URBN, the parent company of Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie and many others; and Tapestry, the parent company of fashion brands such as Coach and Kate Spade New York; and Dell Technologies are already leveraging Commerce’s product data integrations to improve visibility, protect brand consistency and boost performance across AI-driven search experiences.

    “Since Travis stepped into the CEO role, he has assembled an experienced and visionary leadership team that came together with clarity and conviction to transform the company,” said Ellen Siminoff, executive chair of the board of directors at Commerce. “The launch of Commerce is the culmination of bold thinking, careful planning and hard work during a period of rapid industry change. This transformation positions the company for a return to long-term, sustainable growth. We are proud of our progress thus far and look forward to continuous execution.”

  • MIL-OSI: Radware Report Reveals Shifting Attack Vectors in Credential Stuffing Campaigns

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    MAHWAH, N.J., July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a global leader in application security and delivery solutions for multi-cloud environments, today released a new research reportThe Invisible Breach: Business Logic Manipulation and API Exploitation in Credential Stuffing Attacks. The report reveals a paradigm shift in credential stuffing attacks. It underscores a fundamental transformation from volume-based attacks leveraging a series of repeated password attempts to sophisticated, multi-stage infiltration techniques.

    “To bypass traditional defenses, modern credential stuffing attacks are shifting away from traditional password-spraying techniques in favor of business logic manipulation, cross-platform device spoofing, and strategic API exploitation,” said Arik Atar, senior cyber threat intelligence researcher at Radware. “The message for defending organizations is clear. To match this new reality, they must move beyond credential-centric controls to adopt security strategies that validate entire user journeys, correlate cross-request behavior, and detect suspicious patterns in business logic flows.”

    Radware’s research examined 100 advanced credential stuffing configurations deployed through a well-known account takeover tool called SilverBullet.

    Advanced attack methodologies

    • Business logic attacks: 94% of configurations implement four or more business logic attack elements, with 54% demonstrating advanced orchestration, using 13+ distinct techniques.
    • API exploitation: 83% of configurations contain explicit API-targeting techniques.
    • Multi-device spoofing: 24% of attack scripts alternate between two device types during execution, with 71% employing cross-platform transitions, primarily between iOS and Windows.

    Primary targets

    • Industries: Technology/SaaS emerged as the primary target sector (27%), followed by financial services/government (16%), and the travel/airline (13%) sectors.
    • Online tools: There is a significant shift toward high-value AI tools (44% of all technology targets), potentially exploited by spammers who engage in account cracking to create large-scale phishing content. In addition, corporate tools (30%), including Microsoft 365, OneDrive, and Outlook, are likely targets for ransomware groups pursuing initial access to organizational systems.

    Centralized threat landscape

    • Concentration: 51% of the analyzed configurations, randomly collected over six months, were written by just three advanced threat actors: SVBCONFIGSMAKER, t.me/mrcombo1services, and @Magic_Ckg.
    • Specialization: Each threat actor had over two years of operational experience in distinct areas of specialization, including AI platform authentication bypass, mobile API exploitation, and Microsoft cloud services.

    Radware’s complete report—The Invisible Breach: Business Logic Manipulation and API Exploitation in Credential Stuffing Attacks—can be downloaded here.

    The research methodology was based on an analysis of 100 SilverBullet credential stuffing attack scripts to identify emerging trends, techniques, and tactics in modern account takeover (ATO) campaigns. The scripts were collected from Telegram channels of threat actors and published between December 2024 and May 2025.

    CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cenovus Energy Inc. (TSX: CVE) (NYSE: CVE) today announced its second-quarter 2025 financial and operating results. The company generated approximately $2.4 billion in cash from operating activities, $1.5 billion of adjusted funds flow and $355 million of free funds flow. Total upstream production was 765,900 barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE/d)1, reflecting planned turnarounds at the Foster Creek and Sunrise oil sands assets, maintenance at offshore facilities and short-term production impacts from wildfire activity at Christina Lake. Downstream crude throughput was 665,800 barrels per day (bbls/d), representing an overall utilization rate of 92% and including the successful completion of a turnaround at the Toledo Refinery 11 days ahead of schedule.

    Highlights

    • Achieved first oil at Narrows Lake in July, with production expected to ramp up to peak incremental rates of 20,000 bbls/d – 30,000 bbls/d by the end of the year.
    • Delivered major milestones on the West White Rose project, with the concrete gravity structure (CGS) installed on the seabed in June and the topsides placed atop the CGS in mid-July. Hookup and commissioning work has commenced, with drilling expected to begin by year end.
    • Advanced the Foster Creek optimization project, with four new boilers brought online in July, which will add approximately 80,000 bbls/d of steam capacity to the facility.
    • Completed major turnarounds at Toledo, Sunrise and Foster Creek in the quarter, with exceptional execution, resulting in production at all assets resuming ahead of schedule.
    • Returned $819 million to shareholders, including $301 million through common share purchases, $368 million through common and preferred share dividends and $150 million through the redemption of Cenovus’s Series 7 preferred shares on June 30, 2025.

    “Operating performance this quarter was exceptional, with turnaround execution exceeding our targets, major project milestones achieved on time and on budget, and our staff safely and efficiently restoring Christina Lake production following disruption from a wildfire,” said Jon McKenzie, Cenovus President & Chief Executive Officer. “Through the hard work and determination of our people, we have arrived at an inflection point, nearing completion of numerous growth projects and successfully concluding significant maintenance events. As investment in these initiatives is completed, we expect to generate increasing free funds flow.”

    Second-quarter results

    Operating1

    Cenovus’s total revenues were $12.3 billion in the second quarter, down from $13.3 billion in the first quarter of 2025. Upstream revenues were $6.8 billion, a decrease from $8.3 billion in the previous quarter, while Downstream revenues were $7.7 billion, in line with the previous quarter.

    Total operating margin3 was $2.1 billion, compared with $2.8 billion in the previous quarter. Upstream operating margin4 was $2.1 billion, down from $3.0 billion in the first quarter due to lower benchmark oil prices, as well as lower production and sales volumes. The company had a Downstream operating margin4 shortfall of $71 million compared with a shortfall of $237 million in the previous quarter, benefiting from rising U.S. market crack spreads and a higher Canadian upgrading differential, as well as lower run-rate operating costs, excluding turnarounds, in both businesses. Operating margin in the U.S. Refining segment was a shortfall of $178 million, which included a $62 million inventory holding loss and $238 million of turnaround expenses.

    Total Upstream production was 765,900 BOE/d in the second quarter, a decrease from 818,900 BOE/d in the first quarter. Christina Lake production was 217,900 bbls/d compared with 237,800 bbls/d in the prior quarter, as a wildfire near the facility temporarily impacted production in the second quarter. The field was shut in on May 29 and operations were restarted safely on June 3, with a return to full production about one week later. Foster Creek production was 186,100 bbls/d compared with 202,700 bbls/d in the first quarter, reflecting planned maintenance during the quarter that was successfully completed with production returning earlier than forecasted. Sunrise production was 50,300 bbls/d compared with 52,100 bbls/d in the first quarter due to planned maintenance at the facility.

    Production from the Lloydminster thermal assets was 97,800 bbls/d, a decrease from 109,900 bbls/d in the prior quarter due to an unplanned outage at the Rush Lake facilities in west-central Saskatchewan. The company responded in early May to a steam release from a casing failure in an injection well and as a result, the Rush Lake facilities have been temporarily shut-in. The well has been brought under control, and the company is undertaking an investigation and developing a plan to safely restart production. Lloydminster conventional heavy oil output of 25,000 bbls/d increased from 21,800 bbls/d in the first quarter. Production in the Conventional segment was 119,800 BOE/d, down from 123,900 BOE/d in the previous quarter due in part to third-party outages.

    In the Offshore segment, production was 66,300 BOE/d compared with 68,800 BOE/d in the first quarter. In Asia Pacific, production volumes were 53,800 BOE/d, lower than the 57,200 BOE/d in the previous quarter, primarily due to planned maintenance at the Liwan Gas Project. In the Atlantic region, production was 12,500 bbls/d, an increase from 11,600 bbls/d in the prior quarter, due to a full quarter of production from the White Rose field, offset in part by maintenance at the partner-operated Terra Nova field in June.

    Total Downstream crude throughput in the second quarter was 665,800 bbls/d, up from 665,400 bbls/d in the first quarter. Crude throughput in Canadian Refining was 112,400 bbls/d, representing a utilization rate of 104%, compared with 111,900 bbls/d in the previous quarter.

    In U.S. Refining, crude throughput was 553,400 bbls/d, representing a utilization rate of 90%, compared with 553,500 bbls/d in the first quarter, reflecting early completion of a planned turnaround at the Toledo Refinery. U.S. Refining revenues were $6.5 billion, slightly higher than $6.4 billion in the previous quarter. Adjusted market capture5 in U.S. Refining was 58%, compared with 62% in the first quarter, due primarily to a narrower heavy oil price differential.

    Financial

    Cash from operating activities in the second quarter increased to approximately $2.4 billion from $1.3 billion in the first quarter. Adjusted funds flow was $1.5 billion, compared with $2.2 billion in the prior quarter, and excess free funds flow (EFFF) was a shortfall of $306 million, compared with a surplus of $373 million in the first quarter. Net earnings in the second quarter declined slightly to $851 million from $859 million in the previous quarter. Second-quarter financial results were impacted by lower benchmark oil prices, lower Upstream production and higher planned maintenance costs relative to the first quarter.

    Long-term debt, including the current portion, was $7.2 billion as at June 30, 2025. Net debt was $4.9 billion as at June 30, 2025, slightly reduced from the previous quarter, as free funds flow of $355 million and a $923 million release of non-cash working capital more than offset returns to shareholders of $819 million, including the redemption of Cenovus’s Series 7 preferred shares on June 30, 2025 for $150 million. Subsequent to the quarter on July 15, the company repaid its 5.38% unsecured notes with a principal of US$133 million in full. The company continues to steward toward net debt of $4.0 billion and returning 100% of EFFF to shareholders over time, in accordance with its financial framework.

    Growth projects

    In the Oil Sands segment, Narrows Lake achieved first oil in mid-July and will continue ramping up through the remainder of the year. The optimization project at Foster Creek is approximately 87% complete and four new boilers that will add approximately 80,000 bbls/d of steam capacity were brought online in July. The project is expected to produce first oil in early 2026. At Sunrise, one well pad was started up early in the quarter and the drilling program remains on track to increase production and fully utilize the asset’s steam capacity.

    Significant progress has been made on the West White Rose project. The CGS was towed out and installed on the seabed ahead of schedule during the second quarter and the project’s topsides were safely lifted and set in place atop the CGS in mid-July. Hookup and commissioning have commenced, and the project is approximately 92% complete. Drilling is expected to begin by the end of the year and the project remains on schedule to produce first oil in the second quarter of 2026.

    2025 guidance update

    Cenovus has revised its 2025 corporate guidance to reflect the company’s updated outlook for the remainder of the year. It is available on cenovus.com under Investors.

    Changes to the company’s 2025 guidance include:

    • Total upstream production of 805,000 BOE/d to 825,000 BOE/d, a decrease of 10,000 BOE/d at the midpoint. This includes the impacts of the temporary shut in of the Rush Lake facilities.
    • Canadian downstream throughput of 105,000 bbls/d to 110,000 bbls/d, an increase of 5,000 bbls/d at the midpoint, reflecting strong year-to-date performance.
    • Reducing the range of Canadian Refining per-unit operating expenses, excluding turnaround costs, to $11.00/bbl to $12.00/bbl, as a result of higher throughput rates and lower expected costs.
    • Downstream turnaround expenses of $420 million to $450 million have been reduced by $45 million at the midpoint, primarily due to early completion of the Toledo turnaround.

    The company has also updated its commodity price assumptions and guidance range for cash taxes. Cenovus continues to execute its capital program and there has been no change to the expected capital investment range of $4.6 billion to $5.0 billion.

    Advisory

    Basis of Presentation

    Cenovus reports financial results in Canadian dollars and presents production volumes on a net to Cenovus before royalties basis, unless otherwise stated. Cenovus prepares its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Accounting Standards.

    Barrels of Oil Equivalent

    Natural gas volumes have been converted to barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) on the basis of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) to one barrel (bbl). BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A conversion ratio of one bbl to six Mcf is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil compared with natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis is not an accurate reflection of value.

    Adjusted Market Capture

    Adjusted market capture contains a non-GAAP financial measure and is used in the company’s U.S. Refining segment to provide an indication of margin captured relative to what was available in the market based on widely-used benchmarks. Cenovus defines adjusted market capture as refining margin, net of holding gains and losses, divided by the weighted average 3-2-1 market benchmark crack, net of RINs, expressed as a percentage. The weighted average crack spread, net of RINs, is calculated on Cenovus’s operable capacity-weighted average of the Chicago and Group 3 3-2-1 benchmark market crack spreads, net of RINs.

    The company previously disclosed market capture which did not exclude the effect of inventory holding gains or losses. Cenovus replaced market capture with adjusted market capture to exclude the impact of inventory holding gains or losses. The company believes this metric provides more comparability and accuracy when measuring the cash generating performance of our downstream operations. Comparative periods were revised to conform with our current presentation.

    Revenue was $2.26 billion for the second quarter of 2025, which was flat compared to $2.27 billion for the same period in the prior year due to the sale of TRANZACT. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, revenue decreased 1%. On an organic basis, revenue increased 5%. See Supplemental Segment Information for additional detail on book-of-business settlements and interest income included in revenue.

    Net Income for the second quarter of 2025 was $332 million compared to Net Income of $142 million in the prior-year second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $470 million, or 20.8% of revenue, an increase of 6%, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $445 million, or 19.6% of revenue, in the prior-year second quarter. The U.S. GAAP tax rate for the second quarter was (6.8)%, and the adjusted income tax rate for the second quarter used in calculating adjusted diluted earnings per share was 18.0%.

    Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

    Cash flows from operating activities were $326 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to cash flows from operating activities of $431 million for the same prior-year period. Free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $217 million and $305 million, respectively, a decrease of $88 million. The decline was primarily due to increased compensation and cash tax payments as well as the absence of cash inflows from TRANZACT following its sale on December 31, 2024, partly offset by lower Transformation program spending and operational improvements. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 1,614,427 of its outstanding shares for $500 million.

    Second Quarter 2025 Segment Highlights

    Health, Wealth & Career (“HWC”)

    As reported, USD millions, except %

    Health, Wealth & Career Q2-25 Q2-24 Y/Y Change
    Total Revenue $1,180 $1,260 Reported (6)% | CC (8)% | Organic 4%
    Operating Income $280 $276 1%
    Operating Margin % 23.8% 21.9% 190 bps

    The HWC segment had revenue of $1.18 billion in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 6% (8% decrease constant currency and organic growth of 4%) from $1.26 billion in the prior year due to the sale of TRANZACT. Health delivered organic revenue growth driven by double-digit increases outside North America and solid performance in North America. Wealth generated organic revenue growth from higher levels of Retirement work globally alongside growth in our Investments business from new business wins and product launches. Career had modest revenue growth as healthy demand for advisory project work outside North America was offset by North America client postponement decisions made earlier in the year. Benefits Delivery & Outsourcing revenue was materially flat, as increased project and core administration work within Europe was tempered by lower commission revenue in the Individual Marketplace business compared to the prior year.

    Operating margins in the HWC segment increased 190 basis points from the prior-year second quarter to 23.8%, primarily due to the sale of TRANZACT. Excluding TRANZACT operating margins increased 20 basis points. Please refer to the Supplemental Slides for TRANZACT’s standalone historical financial results.

    Risk & Broking (“R&B”)

    As reported, USD millions, except %

    Risk & Broking Q2-25 Q2-24 Y/Y Change
    Total Revenue $1,047 $979 Reported 7% | CC 6% | Organic 6%
    Operating Income $222 $202 10%
    Operating Margin % 21.2% 20.6% 60 bps

    The R&B segment had revenue of $1.05 billion in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 7% (6% increase constant currency and organic) from $979 million in the prior year. Corporate Risk & Broking (CRB) had organic revenue growth driven by higher levels of new business activity and strong client retention globally. Insurance Consulting and Technology (ICT) revenue was flat for the quarter as clients managed spend more cautiously amid ongoing economic uncertainty.

    Operating margins in the R&B segment increased 60 basis points from the prior-year second quarter to 21.2%, due primarily to operating leverage driven by strong organic revenue growth and savings from the Transformation program which were partially offset by headwinds from decreased interest income and foreign currency fluctuations.

    Select 2025 Financial Considerations

    Changes to Non-GAAP financial measures:

    • All reported non-GAAP metrics will exclude non-cash net periodic pension and postretirement benefits
    • Free cash flow and free cash flow margin will capture cash outflows for capitalized software costs
    • Refer to Supplemental Slides for recast of historical Non-GAAP measures

    Business mix:

    • TRANZACT business, which contributed $1.14 to adjusted diluted earnings per share in 2024, is no longer part of the business portfolio following the completion of the TRANZACT sale in the fourth quarter of 2024
    • Reinsurance joint venture with Bain Capital expected to be a headwind on adjusted diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.20, which will be partially mitigated by gains from other equity investments, resulting in a net headwind of approximately $0.10 at the interest in earnings of associates level

    Free cash flow:

    • Expect cash outflows in 2025 from the payment of accrued costs related to the Transformation program which concluded in 2024

    Capital allocation:

    • Expect share repurchases of ~$1.5 billion, subject to market conditions and potential capital allocation to organic and inorganic investment opportunities

    Foreign exchange:

    • Expect a foreign currency tailwind on adjusted diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.05 in 2025 at today’s rates

    Adjusted operating margin outlook:

    • ~100 basis points of average annual margin expansion over next 3 years in R&B
    • Incremental annual margin expansion at HWC and enterprise levels

    The 2025 Financial Considerations above include Non-GAAP financial measures. We do not reconcile forward-looking Non-GAAP measures for reasons explained under “WTW Non-GAAP Measures” below.

    WTW Non-GAAP Measures

    In order to assist readers of our consolidated financial statements in understanding the core operating results that WTW’s management uses to evaluate the business and for financial planning, we present the following non-GAAP measures: (1) Constant Currency Change, (2) Organic Change, (3) Adjusted Operating Income/Margin, (4) Adjusted EBITDA/Margin, (5) Adjusted Net Income, (6) Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, (7) Adjusted Income Before Taxes, (8) Adjusted Income Taxes/Tax Rate, (9) Free Cash Flow and (10) Free Cash Flow Margin.

    We believe that those measures are relevant and provide pertinent information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in our industry to provide a baseline for evaluating and comparing our operating performance, and in the case of free cash flow, our liquidity results.

    Within the measures referred to as ‘adjusted’, we adjust for significant items which will not be settled in cash, or which we believe to be items that are not core to our current or future operations. Some of these items may not be applicable for the current quarter, however they may be part of our full-year results. Additionally, we have historically adjusted for certain items which are not described below, but for which we may adjust in a future period when applicable. Items applicable to the quarter or full year results, or the comparable periods, include the following:

    • Restructuring costs and transaction and transformation – Management believes it is appropriate to adjust for restructuring costs and transaction and transformation when they relate to a specific significant program with a defined set of activities and costs that are not expected to continue beyond a defined period of time, or significant acquisition-related transaction expenses. We believe the adjustment is necessary to present how the Company is performing, both now and in the future when the incurrence of these costs will have concluded.
    • Provisions for specified litigation matters – We will include provisions for litigation matters which we believe are not representative of our core business operations. Among other things, we determine this by reference to the amount of the loss (net of insurance and other recovery receivables) and by reference to whether the matter relates to an unusual and complex scenario that is not expected to be repeated as part of our ongoing, ordinary business. These amounts are presented net of insurance and other recovery receivables. See the footnotes to the reconciliation tables below for more specificity on the litigation matter excluded from adjusted results.
    • Gains and losses on disposals of operations – Adjustment to remove the gains or losses resulting from disposed operations that have not been classified as discontinued operations.
    • Net periodic pension and postretirement benefits – Adjustment to remove the recognition of net periodic pension and postretirement benefits (including pension settlements), other than service costs. We have included this adjustment as applicable in our prior-period disclosures in order to conform to the current-period presentation.
    • Tax effect of significant adjustments – Relates to the incremental tax expense or benefit resulting from significant or unusual events including significant statutory tax rate changes enacted in material jurisdictions in which we operate, internal reorganizations of ownership of certain businesses that reduced the investment held by our U.S.-controlled subsidiaries and the recovery of certain refunds or payment of taxes related to businesses in which we no longer participate.

    We evaluate our revenue on an as reported (U.S. GAAP), constant currency and organic basis. We believe presenting constant currency and organic information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our comparable results, consistent with how we evaluate our performance internally.

    We consider Constant Currency Change, Organic Change, Adjusted Operating Income/Margin, Adjusted EBITDA/Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, Adjusted Income Before Taxes, Adjusted Income Taxes/Tax Rate and Free Cash Flow to be important financial measures, which are used to internally evaluate and assess our core operations and to benchmark our operating and liquidity results against our competitors. These non-GAAP measures are important in illustrating what our comparable operating and liquidity results would have been had we not incurred transaction-related and non-recurring items. Reconciliations of these measures are included in the accompanying tables with the following exception: The Company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, due to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections and/or certain information not being ascertainable or accessible; and because not all of the information, such as foreign currency impacts necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is available to the Company without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures that it believes will be achieved, however it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted calculations and the U.S. GAAP measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP measures.

    Our non-GAAP measures and their accompanying definitions are presented as follows:

    Constant Currency Change – Represents the year-over-year change in revenue excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. To calculate this impact, the prior year local currency results are first translated using the current year monthly average exchange rates. The change is calculated by comparing the prior year revenue, translated at the current year monthly average exchange rates, to the current year as reported revenue, for the same period. We believe constant currency measures provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to performance by excluding the effects that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-over-period comparability given volatility in foreign currency exchange markets.

    Organic Change – Excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, as described above and the period-over-period impact of acquisitions and divestitures on current-year revenue. We believe that excluding transaction-related items from our U.S. GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to our investors, and it is important in illustrating what our core operating results would have been had we not included these transaction-related items, since the nature, size and number of these transaction-related items can vary from period to period.

    Adjusted Operating Income/Margin – Income from operations adjusted for amortization, restructuring costs, transaction and transformation and non-recurring items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results. Adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by revenue. We consider adjusted operating income/margin to be important financial measures, which are used internally to evaluate and assess our core operations and to benchmark our operating results against our competitors.

    Adjusted EBITDA/Margin – Net Income adjusted for provision for income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring costs, transaction and transformation, gains and losses on disposals of operations, net periodic pension and postretirement benefits, and non-recurring items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue. We consider adjusted EBITDA/margin to be important financial measures, which are used internally to evaluate and assess our core operations, to benchmark our operating results against our competitors and to evaluate and measure our performance-based compensation plans.

    Adjusted Net Income – Net Income Attributable to WTW adjusted for amortization, restructuring costs, transaction and transformation, gains and losses on disposals of operations, net periodic pension and postretirement benefits, and non-recurring items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results and the related tax effect of those adjustments and the tax effects of internal reorganizations. This measure is used solely for the purpose of calculating adjusted diluted earnings per share.

    Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share – Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares, diluted. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is used to internally evaluate and assess our core operations and to benchmark our operating results against our competitors.

    Adjusted Income Before Taxes – Income from operations before income taxes and interest in earnings of associates adjusted for amortization, restructuring costs, transaction and transformation, gains and losses on disposals of operations, net periodic pension and postretirement benefits, and non-recurring items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results. Adjusted income before taxes is used solely for the purpose of calculating the adjusted income tax rate.

    Adjusted Income Taxes/Tax Rate – Provision for income taxes adjusted for taxes on certain items of amortization, restructuring costs, transaction and transformation, gains and losses on disposals of operations, net periodic pension and postretirement benefits, the tax effects of significant adjustments and non-recurring items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results, divided by adjusted income before taxes. Adjusted income taxes is used solely for the purpose of calculating the adjusted income tax rate. Management believes that the adjusted income tax rate presents a rate that is more closely aligned to the rate that we would incur if not for the reduction of pre-tax income for the adjusted items and the tax effects of internal reorganizations, which are not core to our current and future operations.

    Free Cash Flow – Cash flows from operating activities less cash used to purchase fixed assets and software. Free Cash Flow is a liquidity measure and is not meant to represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Management believes that free cash flow presents the core operating performance and cash-generating capabilities of our business operations. As a result of our change in presentation, free cash flow for the prior period has been adjusted to conform to the current period, which includes the deduction of our capitalized software costs.

    Free Cash Flow Margin – Free Cash Flow as a percentage of revenue, which represents how much of revenue would be realized on a cash basis. We consider this measure to be a meaningful metric for tracking cash conversion on a year-over-year basis due to the non-cash nature of our pension income, which is included in our GAAP and Non-GAAP earnings metrics presented herein.

    These non-GAAP measures are not defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the information contained within our condensed consolidated financial statements.

    Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of these assumptions, and therefore also the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions, could themselves prove to be inaccurate. Given the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this document, our inclusion of this information is not a representation or guarantee by us that our objectives and plans will be achieved.

    Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made and we will not update these forward-looking statements unless the securities laws require us to do so. With regard to these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this document may not occur, and we caution you against unduly relying on these forward-looking statements.

By integrating PROS enterprise-grade pricing and CPQ with Commerce’s portfolio of industry-leading applications, businesses can meet these demands head-on, resulting in fewer delays, reducing errors and accelerating time to revenue.

For B2B organizations selling with complex catalogs, global operations and diverse sales channels, it translates into faster time-to-value, higher conversion rates and a distinct competitive advantage in an increasingly dynamic market.

    “B2B companies are no longer asking whether they should go digital — they’re asking how quickly they can get there,” said Travis Hess, Chief Executive Officer, Commerce. “By partnering with PROS, we’re giving our customers, from mid-market to global enterprises, the tools to not only sell online, but to do so intelligently, competitively and at scale. And we see this impact going beyond B2B to B2C retailers managing large, dynamic catalogs across multiple channels to improve margin and drive conversion across storefronts and marketplaces.

    CEO Message
    Through the first half of 2025, TC Energy safely and reliably delivered energy across North America, maximizing asset value through safety and operational excellence. Despite the volatility in commodity markets and a complex macroeconomic backdrop, our business continues to demonstrate resiliency, achieving 12 per cent growth in comparable EBITDA and 13 per cent growth in segmented earnings compared to second quarter 2024. Driven by strong performance and focused execution, we now expect our 2025 comparable EBITDA outlook to be higher, in the range of $10.8 to $11.0 billion, compared to the original outlook of $10.7 to $10.9 billion. We continue to advance our strategic priorities – executing a selective portfolio of growth projects, maintaining financial strength and agility, while maximizing the value of our assets through safety and operational excellence. Our performance continues to underscore the strength of our business model and our ability to consistently deliver solid growth, low risk and repeatable performance. TC Energy’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly common share dividend of $0.85 per common share for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, equivalent to $3.40 per common share on an annualized basis.

    Following the completion of the Southeast Gateway pipeline on schedule and under budget in the second quarter, we commenced the collection of tolls from the CFE beginning May 2025. This event represents a significant operational and financial milestone, and an important step for Mexico’s energy landscape and economic development. The Southeast Gateway pipeline is a transformative infrastructure project – serving as a critical artery for delivering natural gas to underserved regions in Southeast Mexico, driving economic growth and energy security while supporting the country’s transition to lower-emitting, more reliable sources of energy. In July, the newly constituted Comisión Nacional de Energía (CNE) approved our regulated rates required to provide service to potential future interruptible service users on the Southeast Gateway pipeline other than the CFE.

    As part of our ongoing efforts to maximize the value of our assets, on July 1, 2025, Columbia Gas notified FERC that it has reached a settlement-in-principle on the Columbia Gas Section 4 Rate Case. Columbia Gas expects the final settlement to include an increase relative to pre-filed rates, subject to revision following completion and approval of settlement terms, which we anticipate in fourth quarter 2025. This outcome on our second-largest pipeline asset demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhance system integrity and service reliability while ensuring timely capital recovery to maximize our long-term cash flow profile.

    We continue to execute our growth projects on-time and are tracking 15 per cent below budget on approximately $8.5 billion of assets expected to be placed into service this year. Year to date, we have placed into service approximately $5.8 billion of natural gas pipeline capacity projects, including the Southeast Gateway pipeline. In May, we successfully placed the East Lateral XPress (ELXP) project into service. As a strategic expansion of the Columbia Gulf Transmission system, ELXP delivers approximately 0.7 Bcf/d of firm natural gas capacity directly to Venture Global’s Plaquemines LNG terminal in Louisiana, reinforcing our role in enabling reliable, long-term energy supply to global markets.

    Fundamentals continue to drive significant growth opportunities for the incremental build-out of natural gas infrastructure across LNG export, coal-to-gas conversions, data centre demand and LDC reliability. Reflecting this momentum, we reached a positive FID on $0.4 billion of expansion facilities as part of MYGP; a program comprised of multiple distinct projects with targeted in-service dates between 2027 and 2030, subject to final company and regulatory approvals. Once complete, MYGP is expected to enable approximately 1.0 Bcf/d of incremental system throughput – further enhancing our ability to connect natural gas supply from competitive, low-cost basins to critical demand markets across North America. Additionally, we have upsized capacity on our previously announced Maysville and Pulaski projects. In aggregate, over the past nine months we have announced $4.5 billion of new capital projects, each underpinned by long-term take or pay contracts with strong counterparties and delivering a weighted average build multiple5 in the 5-7 times range. Our origination pipeline remains robust, with both the volume and scale of opportunities continuing to grow. We are seeing increased demand across multiple end-use sectors, with customers seeking additional capacity to upsize their projects. We believe this trend reflects strong underlying market fundamentals and reinforces our confidence in the long-term need for safe, reliable and affordable natural gas infrastructure.

    Looking ahead, we have clear visibility into a steady cadence of project announcements in the second half of 2025 and into 2026. Maintaining commitment to our annual net capital expenditure range of $6.0 to $7.0 billion, the majority of incremental capital is expected to be allocated toward the latter part of the decade. Our strategy remains centred on advancing low-risk, brownfield projects, underpinned by long-term contracts with strong counterparties, delivering attractive build multiples. This disciplined approach supports organic comparable EBITDA growth, underpins our three to five per cent annual dividend growth target, and enables ongoing deleveraging as we manage to our long-term target of 4.75 times debt-to-EBITDA6 ratio. These efforts collectively reinforce our commitment to sustainable, long-term value creation for shareholders.

    Finally, we released our 2025 Report on Sustainability. The report reaffirms TC Energy’s role in a collective effort to advance a lower-emissions energy system and demonstrates how we’re aiming to strike a balance between meeting growing energy demand and addressing rising global emissions, while collaborating closely with Indigenous rights holders, customers, neighbors and governments across Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Key highlights include:

    • Reduced absolute methane emissions by 12 per cent between 2019 and 2024 while increasing natural gas throughput by 15 per cent and comparable EBITDA in our natural gas business by 40 per cent
    • A continued focus on methane intensity reduction, targeting cost-effective abatement across jurisdictions
    • Achieved a five-year low in our High Energy Serious Injury and Fatality rate, demonstrating tangible progress in safeguarding our people and operations
    • Signed over 40 relationship agreements with Indigenous communities across NGTL and Foothills pipeline systems since 2020.

    Teleconference and Webcast

    Non-GAAP and Supplementary Financial Measure
    This release contains references to the following non-GAAP measures: comparable EBITDA, comparable earnings, comparable earnings per common share and comparable funds generated from operations. It also contains references to debt-to-EBITDA,a non-GAAP ratio, which is calculated using adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA, each of which are non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. These non-GAAP measures are calculated by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items we believe are significant but not reflective of our underlying operations in the period. These comparable measures are calculated on a consistent basis from period to period and are adjusted for specific items in each period, as applicable except as otherwise described in the Condensed consolidated financial statements and MD&A. Refer to: (i) each business segment and the discontinued operations section for a reconciliation of comparable EBITDA to segmented earnings (losses); (ii) Consolidated results section and the discontinued operations section for reconciliations of comparable earnings and comparable earnings per common share to Net income attributable to common shares and Net income per common share, respectively; and (iii) Financial condition section for a reconciliation of comparable funds generated from operations to Net cash provided by operations. Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section of the MD&A in our most recent quarterly report for more information about the non-GAAP measures we use. The MD&A is included with, and forms part of, this release. The MD&A can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under TC Energy’s profile.

    This release contains references to build multiple, which is non-GAAP ratio which is calculated using capital expenditures and comparable EBITDA, of which comparable EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. We believe build multiple provides investors with a useful measure to evaluate capital projects.

    With respect to non-GAAP measures used in the calculation of debt-to-EBITDA, adjusted debt is defined as the sum of Reported total debt, including Notes payable, Long-term debt, Current portion of long-term debt and Junior subordinated notes, as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet as well as Operating lease liabilities recognized on our Consolidated balance sheet and 50 per cent of Preferred shares as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet due to the debt-like nature of their contractual and financial obligations, less Cash and cash equivalents as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet and 50 per cent of Junior subordinated notes as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet due to the equity-like nature of their contractual and financial obligations. Adjusted comparable EBITDA is calculated as the sum of comparable EBITDA from continuing operations and comparable EBITDA from discontinued operations excluding Operating lease costs recorded in Plant operating costs and other in our Consolidated statement of income and adjusted for Distributions received in excess of (income) loss from equity investments as reported in our Consolidated statement of cash flows which we believe is more reflective of the cash flows available to TC Energy to service our debt and other long-term commitments. We believe that debt-to-EBITDA provides investors with useful information as it reflects our ability to service our debt and other long-term commitments. See the Reconciliation section for reconciliations of adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

    This release also contains references to net capital expenditures, which is a supplementary financial measure. Net capital expenditures represent capital costs incurred for growth projects, maintenance capital expenditures, contributions to equity investments and projects under development, adjusted for the portion attributed to non-controlling interests in the entities we control. Net capital expenditures reflect capital costs incurred during the period, excluding the impact of timing of cash payments. We use net capital expenditures as a key measure in evaluating our performance in managing our capital spending activities in comparison to our capital plan.

    1 Comparable EBITDA, comparable earnings and comparable earnings per common share are non-GAAP measures used throughout this news release. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The most directly comparable GAAP measures are Segmented earnings, Net income attributable to common shares and Net income per common share, respectively. We do not forecast Segmented earnings. For more information on non-GAAP measures, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    2 Prior year results have been recast to reflect the Liquids Pipelines business as a discontinued operation as a result of the Spinoff Transaction.

    3 Based on USD/CAD foreign exchange rate of 1.35 for the second half of 2025.

    4 Net capital expenditures are adjusted for the portion attributed to non-controlling interests and is a supplementary financial measure used throughout this news release. For more information on non-GAAP measures and the supplementary financial measure, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    5 Build multiple is a non-GAAP ratio calculated by dividing capital expenditures by comparable EBITDA. Please note our method for calculating build multiple may differ from methods used by other entities. Therefore, it may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. For more information on non-GAAP measures and the supplementary financial measure, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    6 Debt-to-EBITDA is a non-GAAP ratio. Adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA are non-GAAP measures used to calculate debt-to-EBITDA. For more information on non-GAAP measures, refer to the non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

  • MIL-OSI: Real Matters Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    (all amounts are expressed in millions of U.S. dollars, excluding per share amounts and unless otherwise stated)

    TORONTO, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Real Matters Inc. (TSX: REAL) (“Real Matters” or the “Company”), a leading network management services platform for the mortgage and insurance industries, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2025.

    “Consolidated revenues increased 22% sequentially in the third quarter to $45.4 million, in line with a seasonal uptick in U.S. Appraisal purchase mortgage market volumes and double-digit revenue growth in all three segments. We posted positive consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(A) of $0.3 million, up from a loss of $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2025,” said Real Matters Chief Executive Officer Brian Lang.

    “We continued to launch new clients in the third quarter across all three of our segments and performed at the top of lender scorecards. Subsequent to quarter end, we also went live with our second Tier 1 lender in U.S. Title and added a new top-15 lender in U.S. Appraisal,” added Lang. “Overall, we remain on track with the execution of our strategy which is focused on growing market share and readying the business to scale up when mortgage market volumes normalize.”

    “The number of mortgages being originated at higher interest rates continues to rise, steadily expanding the pool of potential refinance candidates,” concluded Lang. “Currently, nearly 12 million mortgages have rates above 6%, and approximately 8 million of those mortgages have rates above 6.5%. This presents a significant opportunity for us once the rate environment begins to shift – and we are strategically positioned to capitalize on it.”

    Q3 2025 Summary

    • Consolidated revenue of $45.4 million, down 8% year-over-year as increased revenue in our U.S. Title segment was offset by lower year-over-year U.S. Appraisal revenue
    • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(A) of $0.3 million compared with $1.7 million in Q3’24
    • Net loss of $4.9 million, down from net income of $1.7 million in Q3’24 primarily due to an increase of $5.6 in net foreign exchange loss
    • Launched four new clients
    • Real Matters’ U.S. Appraisal mortgage origination volumes were down 16% year-over-year mainly due to lower purchase origination volumes
    • Real Matters’ U.S. Title mortgage origination volumes up 52% year-over-year due to net market share gains with clients and higher refinance origination market volumes
    • Cash and cash equivalents of $43.8 million and no outstanding debt as at June 30, 2025

    (A) Non-GAAP Measures
    The non-GAAP measures used in this news release, including Net Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS® Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These non-GAAP measures are more fully defined and discussed in the Company’s MD&A for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 under the heading “Non-GAAP measures”, which is incorporated by reference in this Press Release and available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

    Real Matters financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 are included in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying MD&A, each of which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. In addition, supplemental information is available on our website at www.realmatters.com.

    Net Revenue represents the difference between revenues and transaction costs. Net Revenue margin is calculated as Net Revenue divided by Revenues. The reconciling items between net income or loss and Net Revenue were as follows:

    Adjusted EBITDA represents net income or loss before stock-based compensation expense, amortization, restructuring expenses, interest expense, interest income, net foreign exchange gain or loss, gain or loss on fair value of derivatives and income tax expense or recovery. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Revenue. The reconciling items between net income or loss and Adjusted EBITDA were as follows:

  • MIL-OSI: Brazil’s Grupo Petrópolis Uses Descartes Routing Solution to Optimize Nationwide Beverage Distribution

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SÃO PAULO and ATLANTA, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq:DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced that Brazil’s Grupo Petrópolis is using Descartes’ routing and fleet management solution to enhance its nationwide beverage distribution operations using approximately 2,900 vehicles. The Descartes solution helped Grupo Petrópolis achieve an on-time delivery rate of 98%, reduce overtime hours by 9% and decrease fuel consumption by 5%. These improvements reflect more efficient and sustainable fleet operations.

    “To better meet customer needs, we wanted a fleet management platform to enhance on-time performance, improve service in case of returns or customer concerns and advance sustainability goals by reducing carbon emissions,” said Luís Moura, Manager at Grupo Petrópolis. “The Descartes solution gives us a new level of control and visibility into our large distribution network. Across 160 locations, routes are now more intelligent and efficient, and we track all routes in real-time. If a driver goes off a planned route, the system immediately signals the detour so our team can respond quickly, which is critical to providing reliable service. And, because we can act with much more delivery precision and agility, we have lowered fuel and maintenance costs, gained visibility into idle vehicles and overcome challenges with product and delivery traceability.”

    Part of Descartes’ routing, mobile and telematics solution suite, the Descartes routing and fleet management solution helps retail food and beverage distribution companies, like Grupo Petrópolis, manage routes for optimal efficiency and minimize the impact of unforeseen events on customer service levels, mileage and costs. By continually re-optimizing route plans based on real-time traffic data and other variables, the solution enhances customer service by improving on-time delivery performance, lowers mileage by guiding drivers through shorter route paths, and decreases total route time and costs by helping drivers navigate through heavy traffic with alternate routes and stop sequences. The solution also monitors planned vs. actual deliveries, product traceability, journey control (including lunch breaks, overnights and overtime), route deviations, unplanned stops and departure or arrival delays.

    “Our collaboration with Grupo Petrópolis highlights how advanced routing solutions can help transform complex distribution environments into highly efficient, sustainable, and customer-focused logistics operations,” said Douglas Alves, Sales Executive at Descartes. “As food and beverage distributors look for opportunities to enhance last mile performance, our solution suite can help rebalance distribution networks; improve route productivity, execution and sustainability; respond more dynamically to demand; and accelerate cash flow with electronic proof-of-delivery.”

  • MIL-OSI: CSW Industrials Reports Record Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Results

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    DALLAS, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CSW Industrials, Inc. (NYSE: CSW or the “Company”) today reported record results for the fiscal 2026 first quarter period ended June 30, 2025.

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Highlights (comparisons to fiscal 2025 first quarter)

    • Total revenue increased 16.6% to a first quarter record of $263.6 million, driven by the recent acquisitions of Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks
    • Net income attributable to CSW of $40.9 million, increased 6.0% to a first quarter record, compared to $38.6 million
    • Earnings per diluted share (“EPS”) of $2.43, decreased 1.9% when compared to $2.47
    • Adjusted EPS of $2.85, excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, increased 2.5% when compared to $2.78
    • EBITDA grew 5.3% to a first quarter record of $68.7 million
    • Paid down $40 million of debt at quarter-end, strengthening the balance sheet after borrowing $135 million for the Aspen Manufacturing acquisition during the quarter, resulting in a net leverage ratio (net Debt to EBITDA), in accordance with our credit facility, of 0.2x

    Comments from the Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

    Joseph B. Armes, CSW Industrials’ Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am very pleased to announce record revenue, net income, EBITDA, and adjusted EPS for the fiscal first quarter. These results were driven by the outstanding performance of our strategic acquisitions of PSP Products, PF WaterWorks, and, most recently, Aspen Manufacturing, which added complimentary, US manufactured, repair-focused air handlers and evaporator coils to the attractive HVAC/R end market. As we have demonstrated over the past decade, our disciplined allocation of capital to acquisitions of innovative products fuels additional future organic revenue growth by adding vitality to our product portfolio while increasing our market share.”

    Armes continued, “Organic volumes were down in the quarter off a challenging comparison, mostly driven by softer demand for products tied to weak housing activity. As we discussed on our previous earnings call, we continue to anticipate delivering full year organic growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA for each segment, along with consolidated EPS growth and stronger operating cash flow, recognizing that timing can create quarterly fluctuations.”

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Consolidated Results

    Fiscal first quarter revenue was $263.6 million, a $37.5 million or 16.6% increase over the prior year period. Total revenue growth included $43.7 million or 19.3% inorganic growth contributed by the Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks acquisitions, which are all reported within the Contractor Solutions segment, offset by a slight reduction in organic revenue of $6.2 million or 2.8%.

    Gross profit in the fiscal first quarter was $115.4 million, representing 7.5% growth over $107.4 million in the prior year period. Gross margin contracted 370 bps to 43.8%, compared to 47.5% in the prior year period. The gross margin decrease was primarily a result of the inclusion of recent acquisitions, unfavorable quarterly impact of sales mix and volume leverage, and the inflation of some material costs, including the direct and indirect impact from tariffs.

    Operating expenses were $60.6 million in the current fiscal quarter, compared to $52.4 million in the prior fiscal quarter due to additional expenses related to acquired companies. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 23.0%, slightly lower than the prior year period of 23.2%.

    Operating income in the current period was $54.9 million compared to $55.1 million in the prior year period. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 20.8%, compared to 24.3% in the prior year period. The decrease in operating margin was a result of the previously mentioned contraction in the gross margin.

    Interest expense, net of interest income, was $1.0 million, compared to interest expense of $2.5 million in the prior year period. The $1.5 million decrease in interest expense was a result of reduced average borrowing during the current fiscal quarter and one month of interest income earned on cash balances prior to funding the Aspen acquisition on May 1, 2025.

    Net income attributable to CSW (net of non-controlling interest in the joint venture) increased 6.0% to $40.9 million compared to the prior year period of $38.6 million. EPS was $2.43, compared to $2.47 in the prior period due to the incremental increase in shares outstanding resulting from the follow-on equity offering in September 2025. Adjusted EPS, after excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, increased 2.5% to $2.85, compared to $2.78 in the prior year period.

    Fiscal 2026 first quarter EBITDA increased 5.3% to a record $68.7 million, up from $65.3 million in the prior year period. EBITDA margin contracted 280 bps to 26.1%, compared to 28.9% in the prior year period due to the contraction in gross margin offset slightly by leverage on operating expenses.

    The quarterly cash flows from operations of $60.6 million were mostly comparable to $62.7 million in the prior year period, with some routine fluctuations in working capital.

    Free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures, was $57.7 million, as compared to $59.6 million in the prior year period.

    Following quarter-end, the Company announced its twenty-sixth consecutive regular quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.27 per share, which will be paid on August 8, 2025, to shareholders of record on July 25, 2025.

    The Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal first quarter was 24.3%, as compared to 26.4% in the prior year period.

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Segment Results

    Contractor Solutions segment revenue was $196.7 million, a $36.3 million or 22.6% increase over the prior year period, comprised of inorganic growth of $43.7 million from the recent acquisitions of Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks, offset by a 4.6% or $7.4 million reduction in organic revenue from decreased unit volumes. Organic unit volumes were down in the current quarter due to soft housing activity, a one-time stock up of inventory in the prior year period for a customer’s added distribution center network, higher preseason sales in our fiscal fourth quarter ended March 31, 2025, and consumers’ shift to repair of HVAC units versus replacement. As compared to the prior year period, net revenue growth was driven by the HVAC/R, electrical, and plumbing end markets. Segment operating income improved to $52.8 million compared to $49.9 million in the prior year period. The incremental profit resulted from the inclusion of recently acquired businesses and was partially offset by the impact of lower organic sales, as well as unfavorable volume leverage and sales mix. Segment operating income margin for the fiscal first quarter was 26.8% compared to 31.1% in the prior year period primarily due to the gross margin impact of recent acquisitions on our overall profit margin. Segment EBITDA in the fiscal first quarter increased 11.6% to $65.0 million, or 33.0% of revenue, compared to $58.3 million, or 36.3% of revenue in the prior year period.

    Specialized Reliability Solutions segment revenue was $36.8 million, flat to revenue reported in the prior year period. Revenue increased in the mining and energy end markets and declined in the general industrial and rail transportation end markets. Segment operating income was $5.2 million, as compared to $7.2 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 26.7%. Segment operating income margin for the fiscal first quarter was 14.2%, compared to the prior year period of 19.4% as a result of an escalation in commodity pricing, one-time expenses associated with the consolidation of a manufacturing facility, and unfavorable sales mix. Segment EBITDA in the fiscal first quarter was $6.5 million, or 17.7% of revenue, compared to $8.5 million, or 23.1% of revenue in the prior year period.

    Engineered Building Solutions segment revenue was $31.9 million, a 3.2% increase compared to $30.9 million in the prior year period. Segment operating income was $4.0 million, or 12.5% of revenue, as compared to the prior year period of $5.7 million, or 18.5% of revenue. The reduction in operating income was driven by the inflation of some project costs due to tariffs, as well as growth investment in the sales team and R&D to pursue prospective revenue opportunities. Segment EBITDA and EBITDA margin in the fiscal first quarter were $4.4 million and 13.9%, respectively, compared to $6.2 million and 20.1%, respectively, in the prior year period.

    All percentages are calculated based upon the attached financial statements. Share counts used in determining the diluted EPS are based on a weighted average of outstanding shares throughout the reporting period.

    The forward-looking statements included in this press release are based on our current expectations, projections, estimates, and assumptions. These statements are only predictions, not guarantees. Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from what is forecast in such forward-looking statements, and include, without limitation, the risk factors described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release includes an analysis of adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to CSW, adjusted net income attributable to CSW, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted operating income and free cash flows, which are non-GAAP financial measures of performance. Attributable to CSW is defined to exclude the income attributable to the non-controlling interest in the Whitmore JV.

    CSW utilizes adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) as an additional consolidated, non-GAAP financial measure, which consists of consolidated net income including income attributable to the non-controlling interest in the Whitmore JV, adjusted to remove the impact of income taxes, interest expense, depreciation, amortization and impairment, and significant nonrecurring items.

    For a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and for a discussion of why we consider these non-GAAP measures useful, see the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” section of this release.

    Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

    We use adjusted earnings per share attributable to CSW, adjusted net income attributable to CSW, adjusted operating income, adjusted effective tax rate, and adjusted EBITDA, together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, cost of revenue, operating expense, operating income and net income attributable to CSW, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance our understanding of our core operating performance. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. We also believe these measures are useful for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-recurring items. In the following tables, there could be immaterial differences in amounts presented due to rounding.
